Securing HPE NonStop Servers using Safeguard

( Duration: 4 Days )

This Securing HPE NonStop Servers using Safeguard training course provides information and knowledge needed to secure HPE NonStop systems using NonStop operating system utilities and Safeguard. Topics covered include kernel security architecture, Safeguard administration and installation, user authentication and management, Guardian security, and securing OSS files. Hands-on labs reinforce concepts discussed and provide the opportunity to use the utilities and Safeguard.

By attending Securing HPE NonStop Servers using Safeguard workshop, delegates will learn to:

  • Be familiar with the $CMON interface and TACL considerations
  • Install and configure Safeguard software
  • Create and manage user IDs
  • Apply Access Control Lists (ACLs) on system objects
  • Describe sources of audit events
  • Use the Safecom command utility
  • Use the SAFEART utility to generate audit reports
  • Apply OSS standard security and OSS ACLs on OSS objects

  • Attend a training on Concepts and Facilities for HPE NonStop Systems or equivalent practical experience
  • Knowledge of TACL commands (such as STATUS, FILEINFO, and WHO) for information gathering
  • Knowledge of Guardian utilities (such as FUP, SCF, and DSAP)
  • Knowledge of basic OSS commands and utilities
  • Ability to manage user profiles using the PASSWORD and DEFAULT programs

The Securing HPE NonStop Servers using Safeguard class is ideal for:
